Planning Session with ASU Participants and Cluster Participants
by Bong-Sik Kim

    PFMF students are supposed to do three projects next spring. This meeting was held for students to have the opportunity to meet with participants from cluster schools and discuss their service project ideas for the participatory phase of the program.

Participants from cluster schools

    Marta Pecuch-Herrero,  ASU West
    Holly Threinen,  SUMS Institute

Suggested Possible Projects  :  The followings are some examples of potential projects talked about.

• Lecture as a guest in the course such as "History of Philosophy of Mathematics" (ASU West)
• Develope interactive structure for class such as computational module for the course "Introduction to Applied Statistics" (ASU West)
• Lead small groups with worksheets in class (ASU West)
• Develope, present and grade  class or supplement meterials such as worksheets, computational module , etc. (SCC)
• Do a followup study of some group of SCC students (Cal I, College Algebra) who have transferred to ASU and taken math there in the following semester. For this project,  need to design questions, interview  and analysis.
• Run a workshop in math, computer, or engeering subjects (SUMS Institute)
• Recrute students (SUMS Institute).
• Develope web-based testing for math course (ASU).
• Assist or develope MATLAB module for "Differential Equations" in engineering school which is consistent to MAT274 (ASU).
• Publish a research paper(ASU)
• There might be some possible projects from Grand Canyon University and NAU, which will be notified later.
